Hi

I discussed it with Joe. We concluded that the patch is not much useful, 
because few users will know about this option and few users will change it 
if they hit bad performance.

Joe will be reworking the code so that it will use rb-trees instead of 
linked lists when there will be hash collision, this could improve 
performance without adding a tunable variable.
